Seeing as how I can't keep sps alive no matter what I do or how much $ I throw at the tank I've decided to go in a different direction. Sps, you're fired! The new direction includes plates,lps,brains,rics, and zoo's.(get ready Denny I'll be knocking on your door soon) any other suggestions?

Gorgonians, ricordias, rock flowers , dendros, clams


But only after lots of zoo's!!!!

I guess I'm looking for some feedback from those folks out there that had to deal with a situation like this.

That is awful.

I'm so sorry to be reading this.

A little bit. Nowhere near Tibet though. There was a lot I wanted to change with my first tank.

ETA so we can start posting demands for updates and flogging for photos?

Someone tell Kien to start up some popcorn.

We finalized the sump design today. Steel stand is done. I have a lot of work to do still to get the living room finished so I asked that I not pick up the new tank,etc until mid November. What is really daunting is the plumbing I'm going to do. Just can't wrap my head around it. It starts with a Beananimal and drops 10 feet to the basement sump room. Then...I think I'm going to need everything in place to figure the rest out.
